Don’t say you don’t have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Louis Pasteur, Michelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson and Albert Einstein. — H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

Potatoes & Green Beans in Tomato Sauce

To peel tomatoes, score the skin by making a small X on the bottom side with a sharp knife. Place tomato in boiling water for 30 seconds. Remove tomato using a slotted spoon; immediately submerge in a bowl of ice water. Let stand for one minute. Skin should pull off easily with a sharp knife.

4 servings

Ingredients

1  garlic clove, minced
1 1/2  cups  diced red potato
1/2  cup  chopped celery
1/2  teaspoon  salt
1 1/4  pounds  green beans, trimmed
1/4  cup  water
4 roma tomatoes, peeled and coarsely chopped
1/4  teaspoon  freshly ground black pepper
1 TBLS Mrs. Dash

1. Spray a large skillet with cooking spray over medium-high heat.  Add garlic to pan; sauté 30 seconds, stirring constantly.  Add potato, celery, salt, and beans; sauté 1 minute. Add 1/4 cup water; cover and cook 5 minutes or until beans are crisp-tender. Add Mrs Dash and tomatoes. Cover, reduce heat, and cook 4 minutes or until tomatoes begin to soften, stirring occasionally. Stir in pepper.

Made this tonight and it is quite good.  I like the idea of making my own veggie side dish to freeze for convenience instead of having to buy green giant sides.  This is my first time trying it so I’ll let you know how it freezes.  :-)   At one point per serving, you really can’t go wrong.
